I have tried multiple miracast receivers (a samsung TV and a push2tv) and neither one will show video on netflix. I do get audio, but no video. I have tried some AOSP based ROMs and Stock sense based as well and nothing seems to work. Does anyone else have any experience with this or information as to why it might not be working? My first assumption was HDCP but it looks like others are reporting that netflix works fine for them via miracast (although most of that was from old reviews with different phones).
To be more specific, just the video itself is black, i can still see the player UI components and other system things, just not netflix video. I've also tested Plex, Youtube, and Twitch, and all of those work just fine. However i don't believe any of those streams are protected, so that could be a differentiator.
Bump.
I'm having the same exact problem on my Nexus 6. Please help!
ezcast & miracast
Found this thread - only one that deals with hdcp - anyways the support site for ezcast is stating that since I have used a custom rom (CM and Sense) that the HDCP was removed off my phone.
Is there a fix for the netflix/miracast issue? Different ROM?
Just looking for some help.
thanks

Some problem here with Zenfone 2.
I have this problem with a ezcast dongle.
But it does work fine on my LG webos 2.0 TV. So I think the problem is with ezcast app.
guys just wondering, what's the best Dongle for screen mirroring for LG G3?
I had the Samsung All Share Cast before on my note 3, but it wont work with LG G3.
Basically I just wanna be able to play videos from my LG G3 on the TV and Youtube.
Would Chromecast work? or Roku is better?
I have chromecast and miracast works like a charm from day 1 when I got my phone. It is official supported for G3. Also other cool apps like netflix, youtube, chrome, play music all access, etc. work with it.
Chromecast works with any android 5.0 for 4.4 and before you can try an app called Mirror-enabler (search for it here in xda) I have 2 unofficial supported devices working with it (galaxy s3 mini and xiaomi mi2s).

Thanks for your input.
Im deciding between Chromecast or AmazonFire Sticky or the EzCast by Measy
I'd recommend Chromecast, you can not only 'cast' from apps like youtube, netflix, etc, but you can also Cast your whole screen (Actual screen mirroring) for games and whatever else. Not sure if amazon, etc do that.

oh cool...
is there a lag or delay in the casting?
I know this is old but miracast now works for the Roku 3, which blows the chromecast out of the water.
Hey guys.
Did not want to create a new thread, so I'm resurrecting this one.
I'm a g3 user with an smart TV. I do have a generic slim port adapte which works fine.
What I'm wondering is, I'm still not sure which is the best way to play videos on. TV. I couldn't notice the difference between them.
Slimport
Miracast direct wifi
Phone connected to TV over USB and the smart TV plays the video.
What are the pros and cons of these 3 methods do you think?
Thanks in advance!

My FireTV 1 is three years now and I am tired of Rooting, TWRPing, Flircing, Xposing, RBoxing (what a hero to us all), Blocking, Disabling, ETC. I just want a pure Android Box with Marshmallow or Nougat that will allow me use the PlayStore, Nova Launcher, and otherwise do my own thing.
So far, I've tried the Shield Pro 2017. Came with dead/bad remote, IR wouldn't work, would not finish connecting to Harmony Hub so I gave up. Been looking at several Android TV boxes but they all seem to be pigs in a poke.
Any suggestions for am alternative Streamer and Media server? Would also like to add a TV Tuner and Local or Cloud DVR. Just can't seem to find the right pieces.
Sorry for the other than FTV post.
Thanks.
Have you tried the Xiaomi Mi Box
Hi.
Anyone managed to pause and/or record live TV on a TCL? I installed the channels app and it found all the channels from my TV but no sound or schedule so I can't pick anything.
I have a 32ES560
Ta
not managed it. I wish it was easy just to just record your screen at any moment. And unfortunately there isnt a major dev scene for TCL custom roms to toally unlock our beast of a tv. I have a older TCL C2. works a treat.
Another channel application
Hello!
You have to try another channel application and it may be better.I have 40" Smart Android LED Tcl 40ES560 and I am pretty satisfied.Here you can find some application:

Hello everybody,
I'm new on XDA forum, I explain you my problem.
My home theater receiver works fine (5.1 sounds) when :
- I look TV channels
- I use the TCL multimedia centrer (dlna), but this player crashes frequently it's unusefull
But when using android apps, I get a 2.0 sound on my receiver.
Has somebody tried Android apps like Plex, Kodi, Youtube, DS Station, .... and could hear 5.1 sounds on a his home theater receiver ?
Different ROM versions tested :
- RT51_Android P_V252 Software => NOT OK
- RT51_Android P_V270 Software => ?
- RT51_Android P_V288 Software => NOT OK
Thanks,
I have got an 65ep660 , and exactly the same problem,
Only the tcl mediacenter app and netflix are ok about 5.1 passthrough output spdif.
I tried all the firmwares, all kodi 's versions, no one solution...
Shame on you Tcl, it s the same problem with all ep680, ep640 series
The only Way is a Xiaomi mi box on hdmi input......
Have anyone tested the V270 Brazilian version (root version) ?
Change the transmitter
Also have this problem. 288. IPTV crashes the player. After some investigation it looks like TCL doesn’t use Exoplayer but one of their own.
Tried every possible IPTV app, all of them makes it crash the tv or when it works only have sounds or image stutters

Thank's. The TCL application is named "com.tcl..ui_MediaCenter".
I've been trying to solve the same problem. So annoying...
The best progress I did was installing Nova Player. It has a mode for passthrough that correctly send DD and DTS to my receiver if I set the TV (50ep640) to PCM on the audio output setting. Mode 1 is the one that works.
I don't know if Kodi or Mx player could support the same.
On Nova Video Player, two audio passthrough modes are supported:
Mode 1 (almost deprecated) targets TV boxes with early versions of Android (up to Kitkat 4.4). Note that on some devices you need to set the sound volume to maximum (so that the streams are not altered by the sound mixer). This mode does a software SPDIF encapsulation with ffmpeg .
Mode 2 targets latest versions of Android above 5.1 (Nvidia Shield TV and Android TVs) using official Android framework support.

Thank's. I've tried Nova Player with its 2 modes but it doesn't work at home.
Mode 1 => Video OK, sound looks like a machine gun
Mode 2 => Video freezes, no sound
I've tried these 2 options with the audio TV setting on PCM, auto, Passthrough.
